Explanatory Notes
A ridge of high pressure sits over Victoria. It is forecast to remain
slow-moving over the State until Saturday, when a cold front crossing the Bight
will push the high out over the Tasman Sea with northerly flow developing over
Victoria. That cold front will weaken as it crosses the State late Saturday and
early Sunday, before a stronger cold front arrives early Monday.
